I am a newbie here and to the diamond purchasing scene so any opinions would be helpful. I have been doing my homework on the various C's and cuts and dimensions and just need to get others advice/opinions. I have 2 questions.
1. What have you all heard about buting from www.bluenile.com? I liked the site for selection and the fact that the stones have a GIA report.
2. I am thinking of going with a I color stone. My budget is very limited. Are I colored stones noticable yellow or dull? Would the stone look better in a white gold or gold setting? I wanted to go white gold but heard that maybe it would bring out the I color.
Here is the scope on the diamond:
.58 carat, G cut, I color, SI1 Clarity, Depth 78.3%, Rable 68%, Symmetry VG, Polish Exc., Girdle Med-sl. thick, no cutlet or Fluor., L/W 1.11 @$980
Ooo - Princess cut
ANy thoughts/advice/opinions greatly appreciated and THANKS in advance!
